Yoon Tops Renteria in Main Event of Heavyweight Factory’s “Rumble at the Rock 2” at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Kasino – Hollywood
|
(Hari Jumat, Bulan September 28, 2018) Youthful exuberance carried the night, as Honolulu, Hawaii’s undefeated Logan “The Korican Kid” Yoon (13-0, 10 Biaya) won a unanimous 10-round decision over John “El Emperador” Rentería (16-5-1, 12 Biaya) of Panama.
Fighting in the main event of Kris Lawrence and The Heavyweight Factory’s “Rumble at the Rock 2” boxing event at the Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Kasino di Hollywood, Fla, Yoon outworked the gritty Panamanian.
Often landing three to take one, 19-year-old Yoon is a punching machine with seemingly limitless energy. Renteria landed well at times, but couldn’t match Yoon’s work rate. Skor yang 98-92, 100-90, dan 99-91.
Miami (via Havana’s) undefeated Livan “Machine Gun Kid” Navarro (9-0, 5 Biaya) graduated to prospect status, and probably learned some lessons along the way, with a unanimous 10-round decision over Armando “The Gentleman” Alvarez (18-2, 12 Biaya) of Key West.
Navarro came out guns blazing for the first four rounds and landed some thudding shots to the body and head. Staying cool, the more experienced Alvarez began to come on in the middle of the fight, as Navarro began to slow.
Untuk kreditnya, Navarro found the energy to reignite the buzzsaw in rounds eight and nine to seal victory. Alvarez landed plenty of sharp counters and had his moments as well. Skor yang 98-92, dan 97-93 x 2.
In an interesting 10-round welterweight tiff, Puerto Rico’s Derrieck Cuevas (18-0-1, 14 Biaya) stayed undefeated with a unanimous 10-round decision over Mexican spoiler Silverio Ortiz (37-23, 18 Biaya).
Making his Heavyweight Factory debut, Cuevas seemed somewhat befuddled by the awkward Ortiz at times. He managed to knock Ortiz down with a left hook in round three and the Mexican lost a point in round six for rabbit punching.
Yang mengatakan, it’s obvious why Ortiz has a reputation for taking undefeated records away. Not your typical smash-and-grab veteran, the roughhousing Ortiz throws clubbing haymakers from weird angles that could easily confuse a more conventional fighter.
Cuevas, who punches like a mule kicks, stuck to his training and managed to come out the winner. Skor yang 95-93, 96-92 and a wrong 98-90.
In an eight-round featherweight bout, Miami via Ekibastuz, Kazakhstan’s Mussa “Warrior” Tursyngaliyev (8-0, 6 Biaya) won a pedestrian unanimous decision over Monteira, Colombia’s Deivi “El Cabo” Bassa (20-6, 12 Biaya). A stylistic mismatch, the pair tried to get things going, but it never really happened. Tursyngaliyev won by scores of 79-73, 80-72 dan 78-74 for being more effective against the, too often, jab-and-grab Colombian veteran.
Blood-and-guts fan favorite Jessy Cruz (14-7-1, 5 Biaya) of Miami had an easier night than usual when Homestead, Florida’s Sergio Aguilar (2-10, 2 Biaya) elected not to come out for round four of their six-round featherweight bout. The official verdict was TKO 3 (3:00). Cruz normally goes down, knocks the other guy down and wins some and loses some in the fight of the night. Nice to see him not have to go to the edge of human endurance for once.
Miami’s Jorge De Jesus Romero (11-0, 9 Biaya) was too strong for outgunned Hungarian Jeno Tonte (8-4, 7 Biaya) in their eight-round featherweight bout. A squat puncher, Romero walked down Tonte with relative ease and ended his night early with a TKO 3 di 2:43. An extended body barrage to a wilting Tonte’s midsection convinced referee Sam Burgos that enough was enough.
Dustin Arnold (6-1 (1 KO) of Coral Springs, Florida, had things all his way for four rounds of his lightweight six-rounder against Raul Chirino (12-10, 6 Biaya) dari Miami. Chrino came to life and took the fight to Arnold in the last two rounds. Too little too late, as the talented Arnold took the unanimous nod (skor: 58-56, 59-55 x 2). Good, entertaining fight between two Florida rivals.
Miami’s Irosvani Duvergel (4-0, 2 Biaya) did what you’re supposed to do against your early opponents when you’re a hard-punching super middleweight prospect. The transplanted Cuban battered Texas veteran Emmanuel Sanchez (7-10-1, 1 KO) for four straight rounds and won a wide unanimous decision (40-35 oleh ketiga juri). A true slugger with bad intentions, Duvergel is going to be a fun fighter to watch, especially as he goes up levels and finds some worthy competition. He chased Sanchez around the ring with looping hard shots and was credited with a knockdown in round three.
Cuban vs. Cuban: Livan Navarro and Armando Alvarez Ready for War at Heavyweight Factory’s “Rumble at the Rock 2” on Friday, Tujuh. 28 at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Kasino – Hollywood

Cuba’s undefeated Livan “Machine Gun Kid” Navarro (8-0, 5 Biaya) loves a good test.
Never one to shy away from a challenge, the Miami (via Havana) welterweight will be in tough once again this Friday night, when he takes on fellow Cuban Armando “The Gentleman” Alvarez (18-1, 12 Biaya) of Key West.
The rare Cuban vs. Cuban showdown, also Navarro’s first fight scheduled for 10 putaran, highlights a stacked undercard on Friday, Tujuh. 28, pada “Rumble at the Rock 2,”professional boxing event at the Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Kasino di Hollywood, Fla.
Dipersembahkan oleh Kris Lawrence and The Heavyweight Factory, in the night’s 10-round main event, Honolulu, Hawaii’s undefeated Logan “The Korican Kid” Yoon (12-0, 10 Biaya) will defend his WBO-NABO Youth Junior Welterweight Championship against John “El Emperador” Rentería (16-4-1, 12 Biaya) of Panama. In the 10-round co-main event, Miami via Ekibastuz, Kazakhstan’s Mussa “Warrior” Tursyngaliyev (7-0, 6 Biaya) will face Monteira, Colombia’s Deivi “El Cabo” Bassa (20-5, 12 Biaya) lebih 10 rounds for the WBA International Featherweight Championship.
Tickets for “Rumble at the Rock 2” cost $60, $100, $150, $250 dan $500 VIP and are available through ticketmaster.com.
Jadi, is Navarro ready for a former WBC Latino Welterweight Champion in just his ninth fight?
"Dia seorang pejuang yang baik, but I feel my style will overpower whatever his so-called experience advantage is,” said a confident Navarro. “I was 312-17 as an amateur and I’m already 8-0 sebagai pro. I’ve been brought in as an opponent, supposedly to lose, on a Golden Boy card and a PBC show in Miami, and I knocked both those guys out. I fight my best when people don’t think I can win.”
To prepare, Navarro has reunited with trainer Herman Caicedo and gone back to what works best for the Cuban power puncher.
“I’m coming to scrap. This won’t be chess match. We’re going to scrap. That’s my style. Aku datang untuk memerangi. I wait on the KO and when I see my opening I take it.”
Navarro says he doesn’t mind being part of an unusual “Cuban vs. Cuban” showdown.
“I’ll fight anyone. I’ve fought Cubans all my life back home, so no, it doesn’t bother me. This is a business. You see Mexican vs Mexican and Puerto Rican against Puerto Rican, so why can’t it be Cuba vs Cuba? Good fighters should fight one another, and the cream will rise to the top. It’s all business when I step in the ring. I wish Armando all the luck in the world. He will need every ounce.”
Alvarez says he knows he looked vulnerable in his last fight, a nationally televised loss to undefeated Jaron Ennis in July, and that’s why Navarro is willing to fight him.
But Alvarez says Team Navarro has made a big mistake.
"Saya m 100 percent injury free and mentally ready,” said Alvarez. “That’s what his team didn’t take into account. I fought Ennis with an injury that badly affected my performance. They’re expecting that Armando Alvarez to show up that night, but I’m ready to prove ‘The Gentleman’ is here and alive. He’s a good boxer and he comes to fight, but amateur and pro are two different things and he’s not ready.”
Alvarez says he also doesn’t believe in the unwritten code some fighters carry that says Cubans can’t fight each other.
“It’s rare for two Cubans to face each other, but I think the best should fight the best. I don’t believe in not fighting another Cuban. He’s Cuban from Cuba from Cuba. I’m Cuban too, but I was born and raised here and I think anybody can fight anybody else.”
Alvarez says he’s looking forward to getting back in the win column in front of a large group of his fans.
“I’ll have the majority of the supporters at the fight. I’ll have lots of family and friends. It always helps me when my fans are there live. It pushes me to go that much harder.”

Cuevas sat down for the following interview during a break in training:
How does it feel fighting in the USA mainland for the first time?
I am happy to be fighting here in Hollywood Florida with my new team. I’m in phenomenal shape and, come September 28, I plan on showing it big time.
What do you know about your opponent?
I know he’s a tough savvy Mexican veteran, but I will be prepared for anything he brings to the table. Mexico vs PR has always been a real draw when it comes to boxing and I invite all the Puerto Rican fans to come see me fight.
How long until we see you in a championship-level fight?
My promotional team at The Heavyweight Factory will take care of that for me. I have full faith in what my manager Alex Troya did when he brought me here. I’m working with my new trainer Jesse Robinson and within 18 bulan, I will hopefully be fighting for the world title. These people know what they’re doing and work hard for their fighters. Aku senang berada di sini.
Describe your style of fighting for the people who will be seeing you for the first time.
I don’t run away. I stand in the pocket and slip and make my opponents pay. I am working on power, explosivity and speed. That’s a dangerous combination. Saya dapat kotak. I can bang. I will get it on, how ever they want it. I want to be showman and a crowd pleaser.
How old were you when you realized you had above average punching power?
I must have been 13 and my coach at the time was telling others that I had pop in my punch. Then it just became part of my arsenal.
Would you ever consider an “All Puerto Rico” showdown with a fighter like Subriel Matias or Danielito Zorrilla?
Auntie and Daniel are my friends we spar often on the island. I have great respect for both guys, but once you step in the ring, it’s ‘go time’ no matter who it is.
Do you miss Puerto Rico when you train in the US?
I miss my family and my people but I’m a pro who is focused on getting to the top now and now is the time I will stay focused until I get to that big showdown for the title, coming soon to a theatre near you!

Calderon Beats Martinez in Grudge Match at Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Kasino di Hollywood, Fla.
|
A heated crosstown welterweight rivalry was decided tonight in front of a near sellout crowd at Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Kasino di Hollywood, Florida, as Miami’s Harold “King” Calderon (17-0, 10 Biaya) out-worked and out-punched Miami’s formerly undefeated John David “Pretty Boy” Martinez (10-1, 8 Biaya)
Fighting in the 10-round main event of Kris Lawrence’s Heavyweight Factory Boxing “Hometown Throwdown,Acara, Calderon cruised to a dominant 10-round decision by scores of 99-91, 100-90 dan 100-90.
A combination-punching southpaw, Calderon had too many weapons for Martinez. He ripped to the body and head for 10 putaran, while Martinez offered up the occasional one/two.
Both fighters are enormously popular in the region and their fans tried everything to drown each other out all fight.
In the night’s 10-round super lightweight co-main event, Honolulu’s undefeated Logan “The Korican Kid” Yoon moved his record to 12-0, 10 Biaya, with a routine unanimous decision over Colombian veteran Luis E. Bunga Bunga (24-10, 20 Biaya).
The promising 19-year-old Yoon, the WBO-NABO Youth Super Lightweight Champion and WBO #13-rated contender, learned a lesson about veteran survival tactics, as he followed the reluctant Colombian around the ring the entire fight, looking for opportunities to engage. Flores landed the occasional right hand on the southpaw Yoon, but mostly threw pot shots that missed and then quickly circled out of range of any return fire.
Yoon was cut over the left eye by a headbutt, but still managed to dominate the infrequent action. Skor yang 99-91, 97-93 dan 97-93.
Two-time Olympic medalist Ivan Dychko of Hollywood, Florida, via Kazakhstan, moved his perfect record to 7-0 (7 Biaya) with a one-punch demolition of once promising Maurice Harris 26-22-3 (11 Biaya) of East Orange, New Jersey.
Dychko, who said he was hoping to learn something from the experienced Harris, landed a glancing right hook and Harris elected to look for a soft spot to land. Disappointed fans voice their disapproval of Harris’ non-effort. The time of the 10 count was 1:39.
Two featherweights went to crowd-pleasing war over city-wide bragging rights, and after six rounds of “bombs away” action, Jessy Cruz (saat ini 13-7-1, 5 Biaya) ended up taking a unanimous decision over fellow Miami resident Raul Chirino (11-8, 6 Biaya).
The all-action Cruz can’t seem to be in a bad fight and this one was no different. He was down and badly hurt near the end of round one. Chirino was badly staggered at the end of round two and down from a right hand in round three.
Skor yang 58-54, 57-55 dan 57-55, but this fun fight could have easily been called a draw.
A single left hook by Miami’s Livan Navarro at 2:47 of round one brought an end to what was shaping up to be a decent eight-round welterweight showdown against the Dominican’s Julio C Reynoso.
The pair came out swinging for the fences and Navarro (saat ini 8-0, 6 Biaya) hit it first with the sledgehammer left hand to the jaw of Reynoso (saat ini 12-2, 7 Biaya) who dropped and took the full 10 count on one knee.
In a fight where both fighters appeared to injure themselves, popular Miami slugger Ulysses Diaz was forced to go the distance for the first time, but still managed to win his light heavyweight four-rounder over Chicago’s Israel Echevarria by unanimous decision (skor 39-37, 40-36 dan 40-36).
As in many fights tonight, the judges’ verdicts were no indication of the closeness of the fight. The two warriors each did their share of good work. The heavily muscled Diaz (saat ini 6-0, 5 Biaya) landed the harder punches occasionally while favoring his right arm. The crafty Echevarria (saat ini 3-5, 2 Biaya) snuck in a number of sneaky shots, despite an injured left leg.
To put it mildly, Echevarria was very unhappy with the decision.
